Brief Summary  
1. Participant Recruitment:
20 participants meeting the inclusion criteria will be recruited from a pool of patients seeking implant therapy.
2. Group Assignment:
Continuous or sequential randomization will be used .Continuous or sequential randomization is a method used when participants are enrolled in a study over time rather than all at once. In this approach, as participants are recruited, they are randomly assigned to treatment groups. It ensures that each participant has an equal chance of being assigned to any treatment group at the time of enrollment.
Participants will be randomly assigned to either Study Group 1 (Customized Gingival Formers) or Study Group 2 (Prefabricated Gingival Formers).
10 patients in each group.
